Barcelona are pushing to sign Leganes striker Martin Braithwaite in the next 48 hours.

That's according to Swedish agent Hasan Cetinkaya, whose company is in charge of negotiations.

Braithwaite is now finalising personal terms with Barca, which are prepared to meet his €18m buyout clause. The Catalans have permission to sign an emergency replacement striker for Ousmane Dembele after his season-ending hamstring surgery.

"I expect something to happen on Thursday," offered Cetinkaya to Ekstra Bladet without much else.

It's claimed the contract on the table from Barca is for four-and-a-half years.
